My pregnancy must haves!
Whether you are pregnant, your bestie is pregnant, or your daughter is pregnant.. I have a list of everything you need!
I broke the list down into the top 9 items so it’s not so overwhelming. For a description & link to each of these items, see below! I hope this helps!
Pregnancy Pillow
Why use it? As pregnant goes on, you can’t lay on your stomach or back. So this helps support side sleeping by putting your leg up on the pillow.
The moment I found out I was pregnant I bought one of these. It’s the most comfortable thing ever, and helps you sleep!
I actually never had a problem sleeping during pregnancy!
Here’s the trick, don’t use it as it shows on the website. Rather put the head pillow part where your feet are and use your own pillow (basically nestling you in a sea of pillows).
It unzips so when you travel, you can just travel with the smaller long pillow & use that in between your legs as you sleep on your side.
The pillow covers come off, so you can easily wash them with your sheets!
Bonus: I still use it postpartum because it’s so comfortable, and it also gives me more room on the bed (move aside hubby).
Seed probiotics
Seed’s DS-01® Daily Synbiotic is a probiotic and prebiotic in 1 non-refrigerated tablet, emphasis on the non-refrigeration portion!
It is formulated with strains that support digestive health that help easy regularity and bloating, we know how pregnancy can bring some odd digestive issues!
It also helps reinforce healthy stool and ease of evacuation in the gut.
It helps immune function, cardiovascular health and even dermatological health! I broke out a ton during my pregnancy, and this helped regulate my skin so well.
It’s truly the first step to making sure the gut has good bacteria.
Take it on an empty stomach first thing in the morning with water! I just leave it by my toothbrush, so it’s what I take first thing!
It’s so important for a healthy gut biome during pregnancy! Your baby will reap all of at the benefits!

Hatch Belly Oil
Worried about stretch marks? You gotta get this!
Miraculously, I had no stretch marks… like ever!!
It’s a really great quality body oil made by mamas. Feels so good on the skin!
It’s non greasy, and the dropper makes it so that it’s not messy!
I would lather my belly, all around my back and even down my booty and legs in this oil every time I got out of the shower, daily!
It lasts a long time. You will probably only need 1 for the entire pregnancy!
This is a great gift for anyone that is newly pregnant! It’s like self care!
Organ Complex
I listened to so many podcasts during pregnancy, they all said to eat beef liver!!
But if you’re like me, I don’t want to put beef liver in my mouth… ew dude. I just can’t.
It’s so great for babies development, has a ton of iron and it’s all of the nutrients you need in pregnancy! I read that it could potentially replace your pre-natal vitamin too!
This supplement is 100% grass fed beef liver, heart and kidney. Don’t worry, it doesn’t taste like anything!
I always craved a burger every week during my pregnancy, once I started these suppliments, I didnt crave that burger anymore. My body was getting enough iron!
Ask your doctor if you can swap your prenatal vitamin for beef liver!
I still take it postpartum and it helps give yourself all of the nutrients if you are breastfeeding!
10/10 get it. Seriously.
Stanley water bottle
Get the 40 oz!!
I held off on getting this for so long because I didn’t want to give in on the “trend”. But it was legit the best thing I have ever bought.
It’s huge, so it makes you drink tons of water during the day!
If you’re like me, you like your water ice cold during pregnancy, and it keeps the water so cold (or warm if you’re into that).
It has a huge straw so it’s easy to drink out of it!
Bonus: If you plan on nursing, you are not going to want to use a water bottle that doesn’t have a straw, trust me. You won’t have 2 hands to unscrew a top.
I have used this every single day during pregnancy and postpartum. I take it everywhere with me. It’s my buddy.
Pregnancy thirst is real, so get one of these and just take it everywhere with you!!
They have the cutest colors! Have fun with it!
Birth ball
These are crucial during pregnancy!
The earlier you can get one the better! I started using mine 4 months in, I wish I got it sooner!
It’s important to sit on these birth balls to help baby get into a head down position & open up those hips for delivery!
Just make sure you get one based on your height. The taller you are, the bigger the ball as you want your legs at a 90 degree angle.
How to use it:
Bounce on it while you’re watching a movie in the evening
Swap your desk chair with the birthing ball
It’s great for when you’re going through contractions.
You can also use it to stretch during pregnancy.
Bonus: Sit on it during postpartum with baby on your shoulder. It’s great for helping relieve that pressure from your back.
Vuori Sweats
Nothing is more annoying than not fitting in your clothes during pregnancy..
I basically lived in my Vuori swats during my entire pregnancy!
They fit on me pre-pregnancy, and grew with me during & now even postpartum!
The fabric is seriously so comfortable & really soft.
I have 4 different colors and wore them every single day of the week. I even slept in them!
Tongue Scraper
You have to add this into your morning routine! It’s great for anyone but especially during pregnancy!
Your body detoxes at night, and everything ends up on your tongue.
Tongue scraping is great for getting rid of the gunk that comes out in your mouth during the middle of the night, don’t let it go back into your system!
Great for getting rid of bad breath, wonderful for gut health and even the immune system!
It’s stainless steel, so it’s easy to clean!
Once you start, you won’t be able to stop. It’ll make your mouth feel so clean.
My husband and I have been tongue scraping for over 4 years. Game changer.
Comes in a pack of 2, so share with your partner & no one will have bad breath again!
Calm magnesium
If you…
Get leg cramps during pregnancy?
Have trouble going to the bathroom during pregnancy?

Magnesium is a natural mineral our body needs! It helps with offsetting leg cramps, relaxing musicles to help you sleep and helps you go to the bathroom.
This powder is great & so easy to use!
